It is certain that Sun Wenwen will start and end. With the development of the situation, Jiang Zhiqing, Dai Jitao and others may not be able to return to the country for too long. Fang Zida handed over the finishing work to Yang Du, Yang Yongtai and others, and turned his attention to the country.

While the European war caused heavy losses to European countries, the United States, China and even Japan all benefited a lot from it. Of course, the biggest benefit for these three countries was the United States. The United States has strong industrial strength and is a natural ally with Britain and France.

, it is natural for it to take advantage of the war to make huge profits. Compared with Japan, China's industrial base is relatively weak. However, due to Japan's lack of local resources and the impact of the counterfeit banknote incident, the domestic economy is depressed. In fact, Japan is closely following it.

It is China. Before the official declaration of war, China's finances had improved rapidly under the influence of the European War. Although the subsequent Sino-Japanese local war broke out, the finances deteriorated for a period of time, but since the scale of the war was not too large after all,

The war between the two sides was also short. Shortly after the armistice, the tight finances quickly became more comfortable.

In the past few years, the seeds sown by Fang Zida have finally begun to take root. The massive investment of state capital and national capital has made China's industry and commerce flourish. More and more factories and commercial banks are being built in various places, and projects in several major cities are also led by the Ministry of Finance.

The large amount of labor force, skilled workers, etc. required by the people have also given the farmers who have been digging in the fields for generations another way out of life.

Just like the reform and opening up in the 1980s, millions of migrant workers came to Guangdong, thus kicking off the country's rapid development.

Now, although there is no such exciting and grand scene, due to the development of various places, the contradiction between the land and farmers has been buffered. Someone once said that China's problems are mainly farmers' problems, and farmers' problems can be solved.

The problem is equivalent to solving the China problem. As an agricultural country, Fang Zida is very clear that this problem must be solved in order to achieve stable development. However, due to the current situation, he cannot use radical means, but uses the development of industry and commerce to induce farmers to get out of the land.

is the best way.

What's more, now that the entire Republic of China is fully open, there are no special economic zones or pilot projects at all. With the support of the market, the development of enterprises throughout China has gradually embarked on a virtuous cycle, and the manpower consumed by these industrial and commercial enterprises has increased from the overall level.

In fact, it is no less than that time. According to internal statistics, in Shanghai, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Anhui and other places alone, 877 large and small factories have been added in the past two years. There are 3,419 private workshops and about 150,000 employees.

, if we include the employees’ family members and temporary workers, the total number reaches nearly one million. This is a huge achievement not only in this era, but even seventy years later.

Except for the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions, which are the richest and fastest-growing regions in China, Guangdong, Guangxi and other places are not far behind. Due to geographical restrictions, the Zhili region cannot develop as well as Jiangsu and Zhejiang, but the results it can achieve are surprising. And it is affected by these regions.

Some remote provinces have gradually changed their conservative attitudes and begun to undergo gratifying changes.

However, with development, there are also many problems. Fang Zida clearly realizes that today's rapid development is based on the European War. Once this war is over, the industry and commerce that developed by relying on the war fortune will

There will inevitably be problems of unsalable goods and reduced profits, leading to a sharp decline in production (mainly industrial production). This will be followed by a large increase in unemployment, insufficient operation of enterprises and a large number of bankruptcies, serious damage and losses to productivity and products, and social problems.

The economy has fallen into a state of paralysis, chaos and regression. The decline in production and the surge in unemployment have triggered a global economic crisis. The fragile China simply cannot withstand such a blow, which will cause huge losses to China's fledgling industry and commerce and cause sharp social unrest.

To this end, Fang Zida has already made a series of plans, including temporarily not replacing silver coins with banknotes as the country's legal tender. In addition, stimulating domestic demand and reducing the impact of future economic crises on industry and commerce is also a way. As for a series of other means

, Fang Zida is also preparing one after another.

Today, Fang Zida specially invited Liang Dunyan, the Chief of Communications. After Song Jiaoren formed the cabinet, the original Ministry of Railways was abolished and merged into the Ministry of Communications, which greatly increased the power of the Ministry of Communications. But the good times did not last long, as

Fang Zida, through Yuan Shikai, forcibly took over the Bank of Communications from Liang Shiyi and changed it into the Central Bank, and then took away the military power of the road protection force. After Liang Shiyi failed to conspire and resigned, the entire Ministry of Communications had no control over China's only few railway lines.

It has lost its glory as the first department of the cabinet and has gradually become an ordinary department.

Liang Dunyan was one of the young children sent by the Manchu government to study in the United States. He graduated from Yale University. He was in the same group as Zhan Tianyou and Tang Shaoyi, and was a classmate and friend. Liang Dunyan was a technical official, and he always wanted to do something after taking over the Ministry of Communications.

, but at present, it is impossible for China's finance to invest a large amount of money. In addition, the Ministry of Transport has lost the control of the Bank of Communications and the road protection force. He, the director-general, does not speak loudly. The plans he proposed in several cabinet meetings were always rejected.

As time goes by, I become discouraged.

On this day, Liang Dunyan suddenly received an invitation from Fang Zida and was a little puzzled. Liang Dunyan both admired and hated Fang Zida. This complicated mentality was because Fang Zida had taken away most of the rights that originally belonged to the Ministry of Communications, making him

The Ministry of Communications can only look up to the Ministry of Finance and rely on other people's opinions. Secondly, in several cabinet meetings, Fang Zida was always the one who opposed the proposals of the Ministry of Communications. The Ministry of Communications without funds and financial allocations is not having an easy life. Every day

Seeing Fang Zida's smiling face, Liang Dunyan felt angry.

As for admiration, although Liang Dunyan is a technical official, he has been in the officialdom for decades, and he can see some things clearly. Fang Zida turned his hands into clouds and turned his hands into rain. He used his strength to make clever tricks one after another. In just a few years,

He achieved such a status and quickly improved the country's finances. He also promoted the construction of the National Defense Force, developed industry and commerce, and even used a tough attitude to force Japan and China to cease war... These things cannot help but make Liang Dunyan feel extremely admired. If it were him,

I'm afraid I won't be able to do even half of it.

"Brother Songsheng!"

When he arrived at the Ministry of Finance, Liang Dunyan walked to Fang Zida's office, wondering in his mind what he wanted to do with him. Who would have thought that just as he went upstairs and turned a corner, he saw Fang Zida standing at the door of the office waiting for him.

"Brother Zhang Ming, you are..."

I was shocked, Fang Zida was waiting for me at the door in person? How could this happen? It sounds good to him, the traffic director who his grandma does not care for and his uncle does not love, but his status in the current cabinet is not even as good as that of the education director. As Fang Zida

The Chief of Finance, the President of the Central Bank, in charge of the country's purse strings, the director of KMT, holding military power, how could someone who even Song Jiaoren was polite to treat with such courtesy?

Seeing Liang Dunyan's astonished expression, Fang Zida smiled and took two steps forward and stretched out his hand to shake his hand: "Brother Songsheng is here. I am very grateful. Come on, let's go into the room and talk."

"Is this Fang Zida? He can't be a fake, right?" Liang Dunyan and Fang Zida have never had a personal relationship. They only dealt with each other in cabinet meetings. In his mind, Fang Zida's image was always tough and dictatorial. Just like some time ago, the cabinet rejected the Ministry of Transportation's proposal to apply for funding, and also threw out a five-finger-thick investigation report to prove that the Ministry of Transportation's proposal did not need to be discussed in the cabinet, which made Liang Dunyan angry on the spot. Half dead.

Who would have thought that Fang Zida was uncharacteristically polite to him today. After looking up and down that the person standing in front of him was indeed a real person, Liang Dunyan felt very confused.

"If you show your courtesy for nothing, is it possible that you must be a traitor or a thief?"

Walking into Fang Zida's office, Liang Dunyan muttered something. Fang Zida, who was walking in front, didn't hear clearly what the other party was saying. He turned around and asked strangely: "Brother Songsheng, what did you just say?"

"Oh, it's nothing, I said I'm a little thirsty..." Liang Dunyan was stunned and quickly found a reason to reply. Fang Zida smiled and said: "Haha, such a small thing, I have a big red robe given by a friend here. I’ll invite Brother Songsheng to give me a taste later.”

"Haha, thank you so much, brother Zhang Ming." Liang Dunyan confirmed that Fang Zida did not hear what he said, and he felt relieved and quickly smiled and cupped his hands.

The two parties sat down, and Fang Zida took out the tea set and played with it for a while. Soon, a refreshing fragrance of tea filled the air.

"Brother Songsheng, please!"

"Good tea! Really good tea! I was lucky enough to taste this tea at Xiangshuai's house back then. It has been more than 20 years ago..."

Liang Dunyan took a sip of tea and couldn't help but sigh. When he put down the tea cup, he asked in a deep voice: "Brother Zhangming, please come here today. What do you think?"

Fang Zida smiled slightly, took a sip of tea and said, "We can't talk about it in person. Today we invite Brother Songsheng to discuss the work of the Ministry of Communications."

"What does our ministry have to do with you!" Liang Dunyan's expression suddenly changed.

"Brother Songsheng, why are you like this? Haha, I understand, you misunderstood, blame me, blame me, it's all my fault. Brother Songsheng had this misunderstanding because he didn't explain clearly." Fang Zida was stunned, and soon understood, He laughed immediately.

Then, without waiting for the other party to ask, Fang Zida said: "I have always admired Brother Songsheng's talent. There are not many technical officials like Brother Songsheng in the country, but there are very few, especially in the cabinet. Who is the most qualified for the post of chief, Brother Songsheng is the one who is doing his part. I invited Brother Songsheng to come over today. The discussion is indeed about the Ministry of Communications, but it is not that I want to point fingers at your ministry, but I want to discuss it with you. I remember Songsheng Brother has proposed appropriation proposals at cabinet meetings many times, right? At that time, I rejected these proposals for the sake of the overall situation, and asked Brother Songsheng not to take it to heart. But today I can tell Brother Songsheng the truth. After long-term investigation and preparation by the Ministry of Finance , a comprehensive, long-term investment plan will be carried out for the construction of railways and highways across the country, and the leading implementation of this plan will be responsible for your Ministry of Transport."
